Workplace Mental Health and Wellbeing

Strategy Development

Mental health is a key component of overall health and wellbeing and affects how a person feels, thinks, behaves and relates to others. It is estimated that at any point in time, one in five working age people will be suffering from a mental health condition and 45 per cent of Australians will experience a mental health or substance-use disorder in their lifetime. It is also estimated that Mental Health costs Australian businesses approximately $11 billion per year.

Not surprising then that mental health is an issue that our society and workplaces can no longer afford to ignore. The good news is that a recent study conducted by PWC estimates that every dollar spent on creating a Mentally Health Workplace will create a return on investment of $2.30 and have a positive impact on individuals, employee engagement and workplace culture.

Creating a mentally healthy workplace needs to be as important for organisations as creating a physically healthy workplace.

Our professional workplace mental health and wellbeing consultants can work with your organisation to:

  • Develop a ‘whole of organisation’ approach to create and support a mentally healthy workplace

  • Deliver evidence-informed workplace programs that support employee wellbeing, build organisational and personal resilience, reduce stigma and promote help seeking
